Christoph Lotz argues that the development of innovative systems for additive manufacturing techniques combined with in situ resource utilization are a promising solution for permanently going to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Power Asymmetries: How big platforms change the organization of society Our society is increasingly defined by big platforms and their algorithms. Google is already an integral part of education and the workspace, while Facebook, Amazon and Spotify heavily influence how we communicate, what we buy and what music we listen…

Rare cancers and GBM, the most common and aggressive brain cancer, both have a highly negative health and economic impact and the lowest 5-year survival rate among all cancers. Theriac is going to be a cost-effective theranostic approach, with a high safety profile, high sensitivity and specificity and simultaneous monitoring…

How Computational Neuroscience Can Decode Thoughts and Actions When we look at a landscape, listen to a song or recall a memory, what is the exact choreography taking place across the various areas of the brain? – One of the most challenging aspects about the human brain is the question…

Professor John A. Rogers obtained undergraduate degrees in chemistry and in physics from the University of Texas, Austin, in 1989. From MIT, he received SM degrees in physics and in chemistry in 1992 and the PhD degree in physical chemistry in 1995. From 1995 to 1997, Rogers was a Junior…

Climate Action Future – Falling Walls Circle Plenary Table 2023 With climate change being the most pressing challenge of our time, securing a sustainable future depends on aligning core human needs with sustainable climate solutions. Despite growing awareness and international commitments, progress in climate action has been inadequate and slow,…

As the global climate crisis worsens and Russia’s war against Ukraine causes significant global impact, a fundamental shift in geopolitics and energy policy is taking place. Developing new materials is a core element in the innovation cycle to accelerate the process of energy transition. Complex data-driven insights can be leveraged…

The BLCKB Brain Dictionary project is an AI Model that is using neuromarketing data to reconstruct what subjects perceive based on their brain activity captured by EEG.   Tags: Artificial Intelligence, Bio-Tech, Neuroscience.

We used nanomaterials to demonstrate light-powered levitation of microflyers. For the first time, we devised macroscopic objects that can fly without any moving parts using photophoresis, or light-induced airflow. This new flight mechanism will enable 1) sunlight-powered meter-scale vehicles in the upper atmosphere collecting information about our changing climate and…
